Bush/Gore in nasty soap opera (10)

I believe the answer is:

neighbours

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'soap opera' is the definition.
'Neighbours' can be an answer for 'soap' (Australian soap opera). I am unsure of the 'opera' bit.

'bushgore in nasty' is the wordplay.
'nasty' indicates an anagram (a nasty or wrong spelling).
'bushgore'+'in'='bushgorein'
'bushgorein' anagrammed gives 'NEIGHBOURS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for neighbours that I've seen before include "People next door" , "Enough ribs (anag.)" , "People near" , "Aussie programme" , "those Adam lacked" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
